1. Please contact your two senators and member of the House of Representatives. Call or send a fax that states, "I support the American Dysautonomia Institute's requests for massively increased dysautonomia research funding. Dysautonomia afflicts more than three million Americans, 80% women and girls."

7. If you are a physician, ask your drug representative as to her/his company's research efforts as to medications to treat dysautonomia.

8. Print our online pamphlet or medical journal article (about dysautonomia) and provide to as many physicians as possible including your own doctors. A helpful article, to copy and circulate about postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), is at this link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3756553/

9. Please contact President Donald Trump, by e-mail (president@whitehouse.gov), or even better by fax, at 202-456-2461. Ask that he support increased dysautonomia research funding.

10. Contact the Office of Management and Budget, by fax, at 202-395-3504. Ask that it note the waste, of over one and a half billion dollars per year in medical expenses, secondary to delays in diagnosing dysautonomia. Therefore, point out that increasing dysautonomia research funding, and disease awareness efforts, are cost effective.
